From delicious ale to mouth-wateringly good food, there is something exceptionally special about every single one of them. What makes them different though is the engagement they have with their customers and the community as a whole. As the award season comes to a close, we have rounded up the pubs and restaurants awarded for their efforts this year.
(Image: NQ) Award: CAMRA’s Pub of the Year 2024 This 'wonderful' village pub has a rich history, having previously won the National Pub of the Year title in 1990 and 2019. The pub has been run by the Hunt/Macaulay family since the 18th century. The pub’s interior is of 'outstanding national historic importance' - the only pub in Berkshire to do so.
(Image: NQ) Award: Great British Pub of the Year (for food) 2024 RENOWNED chef Heston Blumenthal’s Michelin-starred Hinds Head in Bray has been awarded the Great British Pub of the Year for food. Home of the original triple-cooked chip and birthplace of the runny Scotch egg, the Berkshire venue has become a destination pub for diners across the world. Under the watchful eye of head chef Edoardo Brambilla, the pub’s menu has evolved to include superlative versions of Great British Classics such as pea and ham soup, devils on horseback or fish and triple-cooked chips, as well as some culinary surprises, notably the beguilingly wobbly quaking pudding and the luxuriously indulgent chocolate wine slush with millionaire shortbread.
